Still Wakes the Deep is a narrative horror from the masters of interactive storytelling at The Chinese Room. Players must navigate the perilous, sinking oil rig they call home, with nothing more than their wits to protect them from whatever has entered the rig, and the roiling sea below.
You are an off-shore oil rig worker, fighting for his life through a vicious storm, perilous surroundings, and the dark, freezing North Sea waters. All lines of communication have been severed. All exits are gone. All that remains is to face the unknowable horror that’s come aboard.
The release date was revealed in an atmospheric new trailer at the Future Games Show Spring Showcase 2024, showcasing the Beira D oil rig situated off the coast of Scotland – and the first glimpses of the unknowable horror that has taken root.
Still Wakes the Deep launches across Xbox Series X|S, PS5, PC (Steam/Epic Games Store) and Xbox Game Pass on Tuesday, June 18, 2024.

Polish studio Mighty Koi has announced two major titles. Players can explore the world as Vuko from Jarosław Grzędowiczs popular "Lord of the Ice Garden" series in the first game. The second is an interactive rendition of Thorgal's iconic comic book escapades. Both games are being developed for Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC platforms.
The Night Wanderer
lets players experience the world known from the “The Lord of the Ice
Garden” book series by Jarosław Grzędowicz. Vuko – the main character
from the books – will embark on a journey to Midgaard, a planet
inhabited by an alien civilization with technological advancements
comparable to the early Middle Ages on Earth.
Vuko, the protagonist of the books as well as the game, is part of a space expedition with the mission to uncover the fate of previous explorers sent to the planet of Midgaard. At the time of his mission, the alien civilization's technological level can be compared to the early Middle Ages on Earth.
The protagonist has to give up all modern inventions and try to blend in with the inhabitants, without interfering with their rate of development. His only help is a fungi-based biochip, which gives him some superhuman abilities. Upon arrival, Vuko realizes that Midgaard is ravaged by unexplained, almost magical anomalies, which might be linked to the disappearance of the previous expedition.
Mighty Koi promises a dynamic and innovative combat system, which blends soulslike gameplay with RPG and adventure game elements.
